BIRMINGHAM -- It was fitting that Vincent's 63-59 win against Lanett needed overtime to determine a winner.

The Yellow Jackets saw their third quarter leads of as many as 10 points whittled to nothing. Lanett used a 14-0 run between the third and fourth quarters to go up by 13 on the Jackets with 6:10 to play.

The Jackets were far from finished, though.

Anterio Rogers completed the comeback with his 3-pointer from the corner with 28 seconds left to draw the teams even at 52. Lanett then missed its next four free throw attempts.

Vincent countered with a missed free throw on the front end of a bonus situation. The Panthers missed a shot just outside the block of no more than six feet at the end of regulation.

Rogers led the Jackets with 28 points. The 5-foot-9 junior guard made six of his nine 3-point attempts. Dontravious Moon added up 12 of his 14 points at the line.

Lanett missed 22 of their 36 attempts. Justice Jackson led the Panthers with his 21 points.

Vincent will face the winner of Tuesday's late Barbour County-Mars Hill game at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday for the Class 2A title. That will be the first appearance for the Vincent boys in the state championship game since an 82-55 loss to New Brockton in 1981.
